We couldn’t resist the opportunity to do an episode around mental health last month in honor of Mental Health Awareness Month! 🎉

To help us dive into the topic we had a very special guest join us - Stefanee Lambert (LCSW, M.ED), Clinical Administrator of Grafton’s Richmond campus. 🌟

In this episode, she and Christopher spoke about a wide variety of areas in both mental and behavioral health. 🧠

We hope you join us for this important conversation and are as impressed with Stefanee as we are! 💫

We have come so far in regard to our understanding, our appreciation, and our awareness about mental health. Would you believe that in 1909 the National Committee for Mental Hygiene was founded? And that Mental Health Awareness Month was established in 1949? I don’t know about you, but those dates...

We always love getting to spend time at Woodward Academy! 🌟

Thanks so much for having us and sharing all the fantastic things you’re doing for your students! 🎉

Thank you to Layna and Cheryl from Ukeru for coming out to visit our campus yesterday. Since integrating the tools provided by Ukeru, our organization has grown immensely. Our staff have become better coaches, teachers, and mentors, and our students have learned to better cope with their emotions. In 2025, we are on pace for a 78% decrease in restraints compared to 2019, the first year we began using Ukeru. Can't wait to continue our partnership with Ukeru!

As we close out Mental Health Awareness Month, we're reflecting on the everyday interactions that help support emotional well-being for all. 🌟

You may have seen it in our newsletter - now we're excited to share it here: Trauma-Sense©! 🧠

Trauma-Sense is our take on a trauma-informed "spidey-sense", which helps us to recognize the impact of trauma, respond with empathy, and avoid re-traumatization. 💙

Because supporting mental health starts with you! Let's build a world where Trauma-Sense is second nature. 🌎
